Rise from the Ash and kick some A.S.S. :-) Update from TUCK-----> Check it.

sweet....

 

Go Tuck!

 

Kick ass man!! Glad you're back!

 

Man, I'm glad you made it home...I had my doubts! Haha. I didn't even consider the snow either! That roadster is going to be awesome....and those tires are bitchin'!

 

What a blast. Sounds like a great time to me.

 

Glad to see you back In true TUCK fashion buddy. See ya sat..

 

Damn, kid. No moss grows on your ass, does it? Great to see ya back in the saddle, Tuck! This has to be the most exciting build thread on the Hamb.

 

Those tires are awesome

 

Awesome update! Can't argue with the gas mileage of the Prius either! Looking forward to more updates!

 

I stuck a hitch on a 2001 Malibu, built a light trailer and went to Utah from Wichita Ks to pick up a Model T.. Going to do the same to a Aveo, to haul lighter stuff..

The roadster was shaping up to be way cool. I'm excited to see it will still happen.

I agree on the tires. Just like the little books. There's a project I hope to get a shot at someday... and if I do, it's getting a pair of those slicks.

Glad to see the pieces going back together for you Tuck. You should know that the talk you and I had when you vended the Pile-up more than a couple years back was one of the main motivators for my getting into screen printing.

 

Just a quick update...

I've been busting ass on the 58 at Perrys- finished the metal work and its on to epoxy... except for a couple areas that were a time money thing- its pretty much almost all metal finished- really clean-

Inbetween perrys and getting an eye exam I fired up the sand blaster and hit my frame with the x-member removed. I need to bring it into work and fix the one rail thats bent. Its looking pretty good!

I'm hoping I can save the x-member too- I'll know more when I get it blasted.

 

Dude thats Rad!

 

Damn Tuck. That '58 is smoove like butta'!

 

Thanks man- I can't wait to start working on the roadster body damnit!!!

 

rad.. I cant wait to see you work on the roadster.

 

Hey Tuck,

Cody Adams says hi....

 

Damnit blackie!!!!! you guys are killin me-

 

cars--smars. tools --pools---Danille is the prize. What a doll. Rock on kids. ~sololobo~

 

With back seat traction control!

 

If they made a Prius version of the VW Caddy, with big brakes/regenerators and could tow 5K lbs, I bet a lot of us would have one... Electric motors = instant torque, even at 1 rpm.

Go! Tuck, Go!

 

My 85 Cavalier wagon had a hitch. Still don't know why.......... Glad you're back.

Later, Bill

 

good for you tuck!

 

Paints drying in the booth- so Im checking in....

Gearing up for good things...
Ordered spray guns today- and a gun with a shot gun tip to spray flake-
Perry gave me a variable speed buffer- so I ordered up the pads and compounds to go with it to buff the paint on the roadster.

Finished blasting the frame last night- and started to work on the Garage- started to organize everything- and started to layout the peg board stations for tools. Were gonna put up a heater I'm getting from Dan Pate and insulate the garage for now so I have a workshop to work in... kinda like Moriairty He builds that crazy shit in a 2 car garage... so can I!

I have customer stuff to do on top of this so its kinda crazy- but I try and work on the garage a couple hours each day- and then I shift gears to art.

I need a maid because the house looks like a mad man lives there- no end in sight[TM]

Might sneak the frame in to the shop on Sunday and get it set up on the frame rack and fix it-

Ok back to work------>
Tuck

 

glad to hear things are a comin' together...

and 37mpg pulling? the prius i got for the wife never gets better than 38mpg average without tugging anything behind it. damn.

 

Glad to hear positive stuff is goin on Tuck......build it and they will come!

 

Glad to see you rolling man . . . but you shoulda called me on the pads and compound! You do remember I where i work, right?

And for the record, I drive jap cars daily too . . . my tow pig:
